The Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain

2020 Key Word Challenge - March (Dream, Day, In, House, Luck, Friend)
Newest Book on TBR


Well, I know the meaning behind the title...the story invades your dreams and you find yourself getting up at 1:00 a.m. to read for the next 2 hours to finish the story!

There's little I can say about this book without spoiling it, so I'll just tell you to read it. While I was irritated at one point in the book (for those who've read it: the end of Part One? How could Hunter not know? C'mon!), but I understand how it allows the plot to evolve and what a plot it is!

This genre-spanning novel reads like a suspense thriller while it asks you to suspend reality for just a moment.

Goodreads Summary: When Caroline Sears receives the news that her unborn baby girl has a heart defect, she is devastated. It is 1970 and there seems to be little that can be done. But her brother-in-law, a physicist, tells her that perhaps there is. Hunter appeared in their lives just a few years before—and his appearance was as mysterious as his past. With no family, no friends, and a background shrouded in secrets, Hunter embraced the Sears family and never looked back.

Now, Hunter is telling her that something can be done about her baby's heart. Something that will shatter every preconceived notion that Caroline has. Something that will require a kind of strength and courage that Caroline never knew existed. Something that will mean a mind-bending leap of faith on Caroline's part.

And all for the love of her unborn child.
